Learning the Language of Autism : Through the Senses. This item is unavailable.Learning the Language of Autism : Through the Senses

I offer this experience because I wished for autistic people to be fully understood through their life’s experiences. A highly beneficial read for parents/carers who want the best for their ‘person’ offering unique provision for professionals in their wish to provide the best service for people of all ages they offer support. You are invited to look through the lens of sensory processing, in depth. As the book flows, you begin to see the weave in how all of the senses are connected, giving a clear understanding of how they physically manifest for the autistic person; more importantly, it translates previously misunderstood behaviours into meaning. All behaviours are a unique language and with that communication, comes solutions directly from the autistic’s sensory perspective.

Belle Berroyer was born in Essex where she started her professional career in early years development and education. Throughout her varied career, she continued her professional studies, combining both academic research and practical experience knowledge. In more recent years, she has written articles for various magazines and media platforms, as well as creating and delivering workshops on sensory awareness and autism for early years courses across the academic spectrum, as well as specific workplaces and support services for a multitude of neurotypes, particularly autism. She has recently set up her own website where she offers environment support for families within their own homes, as well as 1-1 sessions for parents, carers and workplaces to enhance their knowledge of sensory awareness in autism. In 2002, she relocated to mid-Wales where she became a mother. This is where her awareness of autism and sensory processing became truly active. Her son was born a non-speaking autistic. Teaching her his way of being human, she began to enquire deeply into the sensory aspect of living life. In doing so, she learnt about her own sensory challenges, which answered a lot of before, unknown questions about her own struggles growing up. Now, 17 years on, Belle has created this practical and insightful introduction to learning the language of autism through the sensory systems.
